"There's an authenticity to Obenski's music that gets to the very core of a person." -Monterey Weekly
Amy Obenski creates connection by revealing the commonalities in all of us that make us human. Behind her crystalline voice and thought provoking lyrics, youβll notice influences from Motown and jazz with glimpses of 1960s folk-rock greats such as Carole King or Joni Mitchell. Her biggest breakthrough so far was when her song, Carousel, was featured on the hit TV show, Grey's Anatomy.
Amy Obenski is known for her haunting emotional vocals. But she's one of those artists who does a bit of everything. She's a classically trained pianist, writes her own songs, and plays an array of other instruments. In addition, she also composed, arranged, produced and mixed her last six (out of seven) albums. Much of these recordings were done in her home studio with herself as the recording engineer.
Obenski spent her childhood in San Diego studying classical and jazz while also hiding in her room writing poetry she thought no one would hear. Once she began songwriting, all that time writing poems in solitude morphed into a talent for lyrics. Sheβs toured the U.S. and Europe, plus recorded and toured with her own French band (The Carbone Band), along with an Artist in Residence in Saint Herblain, France. You can currently find Amy Obenski in San Francisco, where she's lived since 2012.
